You are last.

I started Moery/LAI with my business partner Mark French almost one year ago.

And I have a few nuggets of advice for entreprenuers that want to...

hang out a shingle

run my own thing

be a CEO

be a President

build something that's mine
act on my great ideas

and, of course, BE THE BOSS!

If that is your motivation.  Stop and re-think it.  Here is the reality.  You are "last" and will be for a very long time.  Here's what comes before you...

your customers, because they decide if you get paid or not.

your employees, because you damn sure can't do it all.

your business partner, because he had confidence in you to build a successful business.

your banker, your accountant, and your lawyer because you likely don't know that stuff.

your spouse and kids, because they still need you, and you them.

your prospects, because they want a proposal.

There are more..but, believe me, they are all before you.

So, let your ego go.  Because it won't be satisfied and will keep you from focusing on those that really matter for a successful business.

But, I'll also let you in on this secret.  This could be the ride of your business life!
